| Startling AI results. AI is a great tool, but you can’t rely everything on it. I recently challenged AI on crossover design information that it was giving out. Granted it was about phasing, slopes and proper impedance compensation . In the end it came back and said my... | |
| Kef 107 Crossover Rebuild I've done a few Kef crossovers and have some falcon caps here. So, a few things, which Jantzen Polypropylene caps? They all sound a bit different, but overall, Jantzen makes quality caps. First, all of the Jantzen will have a much lower esr than... | |
| A new measurement specification for speakers? I was going to retire. I've been on Agon for many years, got aggravated with it and had not posted for a long time. Many of you may remember me, I worked at Marcof Electronics/SpeakerCraft back in the early 80's. I've been doing speaker repairs ... | |
| How do Dahlquist DQ10 stack up against current speakers? I have worked on DQM9 and DQ10's. Understand their limitations, with that, they are a fine speaker. They are time aligned and image well. They are relatively in phase, but you need to get their height place correctly. At the correct ear height, ... | |

| If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It A lot of you guys that have been on here for a long time know me. I was GM at Marcof Electronics and SpeakerCraft out of Webster Groves/St. Louis mo. Retiring, decided to do similar work that GR does. My new business concentrates on Speaker Upg... | |
| To all Klipsch Heritage fans Hi guys, I had posted on here for many years. The last year or two I backed off. I recently semi-retired and decided to start my own company. A lot of you know I came from Marcof Electronics since SpeakerCraft out of the St Louis area. I’ve helped... | |
| Incredible Audio System for $1K I have built six TPA 3255 amps since 2018. With care taken on the power supply and just a few changes of key parts they have all sounded very good. It is true that the newest versions do sound slightly better but they have all been very nice sound... | |
| ??? Where Does "High End" Start ??? I've always thought of it more as in brands rather than price..... I am going to date myself pretty quickly with the brands, but none the less, everyone will get it. Denon, NAD, Yamaha, entry level audiophile. and occasionally, each brand wou... | |
| Single way or multiway Bache, not sure what you are trying to achieve with this post. As A manufacturer, I would normally assume that you would try to achieve a broadband reasonably flat curve doing little harm as possible to phasing... Not the case? I also look at keep... | |
| Does loudness play a part in your appreciation? For me, the perception that the volume could be recreating near the original volume makes listening real. I realistically also listen to most music at that 70 to 75 db range, but I have pulled the meter out to occasionally find myself in the low t... | |
| Vintage Japanese DD Consult and Suggestions Please At $2500 or less, from your list, I would go for the SP10 MKII. Very enjoyable table. If it were me, these days I think I'd just chase a Micro Seiki DD8 in the best shape that I could find. That's maybe $800 and drop a great cartridge on it. This ... | |
| Why do I have to prove I am a human, every time I refresh a page on this site ? It's better than having bots answer or starting bogus threads | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? I think if a friend wanted to be introduced to jazz, I would recommend to get a taste of stuff that leans jazz, but not hard core and see if it blossoms... some of the later Steely Dan, Gregory Porter, Erin Bode, Monkey House. Then take a listen t... | |
| Music first or sound first? When the sound is right, the music is first. When the sound is off it gets in the way and takes our attention and we find it first. |
